Forgive me if this question is really stupid, but can physical media like vinyl support Dolby Atmos? I'm just wondering whether the physical deluxe editions (which I hope are still forthcoming) will sound as crisp as the Immaculate Collection Atmos versions.

They got Gambler on streaming, but something like Who’s That Girl with the other half being other artists might make things more difficult.
I kind of get why they did it the way they did but it would have made so much more sense to have all the Madonna songs on side one of the vinyl of 'Who's that girl'. I guess barely anyone would have flipped to side two but, well, everyone bought the album for her stuff.
Surely an EP with just her songs and/or a few remixes is possible? Or tack that onto the end of the True Blue reissue as an additional disc.
I really don’t think Atmos can work on vinyl, but they can release a bluray audio for sure.
Well actually the press release said soundtracks were part of the reissue project. I think the best thing should be a collection of all her soundtracks songs with maybe the unreleased from Vision Quest etc.

It makes sense to bundle the Who’s That Girl songs on to the deluxe edition of True Blue since production wise it’s very similar, Spotlight too.
It really would be great to get Dolby Atmos mixes of all her albums on Blu Ray like the SuperDeluxeEdition releases.

Maybe but it’s a possibility (the WTG Ep was released after all)
All in all, the new pact includes 17 studio albums plus singles, soundtrack recordings, live albums, and compilations.
Yes, an digital EP of this would be most welcome, especially to have Causing A Commotion remastered.
It's nice that somebody at Warner UK was thinking of the fans who'd miss these singles back then by shoving them out backing the "Holiday" re-release, but it would have been nicer if a digital edition of The Immaculate Collection was expanded to finally include them. Were these Q-Sound mixes on the EP too, or just the originals?
Love this idea. D
No - would need to be a Blu Ray disc for physical media.
The Silver Screen single mix of Causing a Commotion isn’t on streaming so the Holiday Collection EP would be very welcome.
Is this likely though? I hope, hope, hope and pray it happens.
To me The Holiday Collection On streaming is a pointless release, we will eventually get the Who’s That Girl EP with the remixes and the other tracks are already available.
This would well and truly be a Madonna dream come true.

I mean, Madonna’s catalog was remastered for 5.1 audio 20 years ago and the project was shelved. Apple couldn’t stop her from releasing those if she had them updated.
Blu ray already is a format used for music, particularly these Dolby Atmos releases, Everything But the Girl, Tears for Fears and Shakespears Sister are a few recent examples of albums released on Blu Ray featuring Dolby Atmos mixes.
Atmos is not exclusive to Apple at all. The recent Dolby Atmos remaster of Shakespears Sister was made available on streaming services as well as on Bluray (alongside a discrete 5.1 downmix and a stereo downmix).
If Madonna's team sees the point in repressing Finally Enough Love in colorful vynil, I hope they also see the point in these sort of definitive releases for collectors.
